🇬🇧 Birmingham. The industrial and musical city of the United Kingdom, where the first fire of the Industrial Revolution burned and where many genres of music emerged including heavy metal. ▪️In October, I have met with Birmingham Music Archive Founder and Director Jez Collins in…
On this day: Wednesday 15th November 1978, Pure Hell played Barbarella's. In West Philadelphia born and raised....they formed in 1974, arrived in New York as Punk was beginning, moving to the infamous Chelsea Hotel, and split not long after this European tour.
I was contacted by Guzin, founder of @metal_oda saying she was visiting Brum from Istanbul & could we meet up & talk about Brum, music, metal & culture. We toured Brum & this is part 1 of her article. Her passion & knowledge for Brum bursts thru! Our music culture is global! 💛

So depressing to hear this I spent quite a bit of time w/ Press Up (w/ no payment!) on the redevelopment plans for the MCH which included a 1500 cap live venue & celebrating its musical heritage. An extremely important & iconic Brum building. Hopefully something will come forward
Methodist Hall: As reported yesterday on our IG, this project is over (for now). Oakmount's sister leisure company Press Up Hospitality/Cedar Creative Ltd, has gone into receivership citing major cost increases: energy, cost of living, Covid, Russia-Ukr war, and increased VAT.

Street Level Superstar: A Year With Lawrence is Uncut’s book of the year. Incredible news, thank you thank you thank you.
With the exit wound still smouldering on Nine Eight’s temple, I’ll take this wonderful swansong. Thank you so much @uncutmagazine and huge love and congrats to @Willjhodgkinson and @Mozart_Estate Lawrence: Number One
And my now wife was dragged along by her then boyfriend to see some obscure rock band called U2 when she wanted to see Bow Wow Wow. She's still bitter.
My then girlfriend, now wife went to Bow Wow Wow at the Tower. Wish I'd gone too! Here's a pic from that night by Mick @MightyMighty_
Here's someone else's ticket for the night and some photos of the venue (and the handy neighbouring chip shop) via @brummusicpics (THREAD)
Love these
On this day in 1981, I was taking photos of Depeche Mode at the Locarno in Birmingham. Here are some from the soundcheck, backstage and show (THREAD)

On this day: Wednesday 22nd October 1980, Siouxsie and the Banshees played the Top Rank. Interesting story about The Banshees giving Altered Images a slot on the 1980 Kaleidoscope British tour after they wrote to the fanclub (they were all members) asking if they could support.
Welcome back @BM_AG fantastic to see the museum full of people again! Was chuffed to see some of our music heritage represented! Two lost venues, The Eagle & Tun sign, which we worked so hard to salvage before it was demolished, @UB40OFFICIAL & the beautiful Golden Eagle sign.
